Hi,
My hubby had rashes that lasted for more than 2 weeks. Doctors are unable to tell us why or what happen. Rashes simply appeared on all his joints, body, back, arms, leg... basically his whole body. They don't cause any itch nor pain. No fever, no body ache... basically... nothing but just rashes that simply appear like chicken pox but it's not chicken pox. And it is not contagious.
Doctors have no answer for us and just tell us it is likely either fake measles or some unknown virus.
Is there anyway to eliminate these rashes?

Hi Anon,
Unfortunately, sometimes viruses (even if you have no symptoms) will cause a rash afterwards. The rash will go away by itself in time. If the cause is not known then it is hard to say if there is a way to eliminate the rash when it is probably best left alone and if it doesn't go away within the next week, you may want to seek a second opinion with another dermatologist.
In the meantime, this website has dermatologic conditions from A to Z with pictures of skin disorders-- maybe you'll see something that looks familiar.

Hope this helps!
